Spotlight: Zyvra Mobility – The New Standard for NEMT in Austin

Zyvra Mobility is fixing the gap in Austin's medical transportation by combining high-tech logistics with "white-glove" human care.

If you are a care coordinator in Travis County or a family member trying to get a loved one to a doctor's appointment on time, you know the struggle. Rideshare apps aren't equipped for mobility needs, and traditional services are often late or unreliable. Zyvra Mobility has entered the chat to solve exactly this problem.

Here is why they are turning heads in the 512:

• Tech-Forward: Powered by AI-driven software (Bambi NEMT) for real-time tracking.
• Specialized Fleet: Fully equipped for wheelchairs, stretchers, and Broda chairs.
• "White-Glove" Service: Drivers are trained service professionals, not just gig workers.
• Reliability: A core commitment to punctuality in a city known for traffic.

This isn't just a ride; it is a lifeline for Austin’s most vulnerable residents.

What is Zyvra Mobility?

Zyvra (pronounced ZEE-vrah) is a locally owned non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) provider serving Austin, Round Rock, and the surrounding Travis County areas.

Founded by Wesley Burris, a leader with deep experience in senior living, the company was born from frustration. After watching residents miss critical appointments due to unreliable transport, Burris built the solution he wished he had access to.

The name is inspired by Hermes, the swift guide. Their mission is simple but rare: treat medical transport as a premium service, not a commodity.

"We don't just provide rides; we provide a premier, dependable service that elevates the standard of care for everyone involved."

— Wesley Burris, CEO

The "Austin Traffic" Problem vs. The Zyvra Solution

Let's be real—driving in Austin is stressful. Between the gridlock on I-35 and the parking nightmares at major medical centers like St. David's or Ascension Seton, getting to an appointment is a logistical hurdle.

For someone in a wheelchair or recovering from surgery, that hurdle can feel impossible.

How Zyvra Handles It:

• Door-to-Door (and Through-the-Door): Unlike curb-to-curb taxis, Zyvra drivers assist passengers from their home, secure them safely in the vehicle, and ensure they are checked in at their destination.
• Smart Routing: They utilize advanced logistics software to navigate Austin's traffic patterns, ensuring on-time arrivals.
• Safety First: Vehicles are ADA-compliant, meticulously cleaned, and equipped with industry-leading safety restraints.

Services Breakdown

Zyvra isn't a one-size-fits-all shuttle. They offer specialized configurations depending on the patient's medical condition.

• Ambulatory Transport: For patients who can walk but need a supportive arm and a reliable ride.
• Wheelchair Transport Austin: Ramps, lifts, and securement systems for manual and electric wheelchairs.
• Stretcher & Broda Chair: Specialized options for bed-bound or non-ambulatory patients who require specific positioning during transit.
• Hospital Discharge: Seamless transition from facility to home.

Quick Comparison: Rideshare vs. Zyvra

If you are debating between calling an Uber/Lyft or booking a professional NEMT service, here is the breakdown of what you actually get.

Technology That Actually Helps

One of the standout features of Zyvra is their investment in technology. They run on Bambi NEMT software, which is a game-changer for transparency.

For Healthcare Facilities:

You get a dedicated partner portal where you can book rides for residents, track the driver in real-time, and view billing all in one place. No more calling dispatch and being put on hold while your patient waits in the lobby.

For Families:

You receive SMS updates when the driver is on the way, when they arrive, and when your loved one has been dropped off. It removes the anxiety of "did Dad make it to his appointment?"
